Dornick Hills enjoys two distinctions. It was Oklahoma's first golf course with Bermuda grass greens. We have updated the greens in fall of 2016 to 007 Bent Grass. It was the first Oklahoma Golf Club to be affiliated with the United States Golf Association. This occurred on July 20, 1914 and for the next six years no other Oklahoma Golf Club enjoyed such a distinction. Before Perry Maxwell died in 1952, he had designed about 75 golf courses — many of which were in Oklahoma. Some of the other notable courses he designed in Oklahoma were Twin Hills, Southern Hills, Oakhurst, Hillcrest and Oklahoma City Golf & Country Club. He also designed Hardscrabble in Ft. Smith, AR, Prairie Dunes in Hutchison, KS, and Colonial in Ft. Worth, TX. Mr. Maxwell did a great deal of redesigning. Some of these were Pine Valley NJ, Westchester, NY, Maidstone NY, Merion PA, Saucon Valley PA, Augusta National GA, Cypress Point CA and Brook Hollow TX.
